Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend approximately ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in fact a number of podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained extensive medical training with an attention to on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to treat problems ranging from conventional problems for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more complex like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which furnish them the practical experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and avoid numerous issues which the feet typically experience.
